74ALVC245
Low Voltage Bidirectional Transceiver
with 3.6V Tolerant Inputs and Outputs
General Description
Features
■ 1.65V-3.6V VCC supply operation
The ALVC245 contains eight non-inverting bidirectional
buffers with 3-STATE outputs and is intended for bus ori-
ented applications. The T/R input determines the direction
of data flow. The OE input disables both the A and B ports
by placing them in a high impedance state.
■ 3.6V tolerant inputs and outputs
■ Power-off high impedance inputs and outputs
■ Supports Live Insertion and Withdrawal (Note 1)
■ tPD
The 74ALVC245 is designed for low voltage (1.65V to
3.6V) VCC applications with I/O compatibility up to 3.6V.
3.4 ns max for 3.0V to 3.6V VCC
3.9 ns max for 2.3V to 2.7V VCC
6 ns max for 1.65V to 1.95V VCC
The 74ALVC245 is fabricated with an advanced CMOS
technology to achieve high-speed operation while main-
taining low CMOS power dissipation.
■ Uses patented Quiet Series noise/EMI reduction
circuitry
■ Latchup conforms to JEDEC JED78
■ ESD performance:
Human body model > 2000V
Machine model > 200V
Note 1: To ensure the high impedance state during power up and power
down, OEn should be tied to VCC through a pull up resistor. The minimum
value of the resistor is determined by the current sourcing capability of the
driver.
